South Korea's Jiyai Shin maintains 1-shot lead at Kingsmill

WILLIAMSBURG, Virginia--South Korea's Jiyai Shin followed up a tournament-record 62 with a 68 on Friday for a one-shot lead in the U.S. LPGA Tour Kingsmill Championship.

Shin was among the players who completed her first round on Thursday despite a lengthy rain delay.

Her sizzling first-round effort held up, but Shin, a former world number one who won the last of her eight LPGA titles in November of 2010, admitted she was watching the scoreboard.

"I have to know my position, and I keep changing my plan each hole after I check the positions," said Shin, who had four birdies and a bogey en route to a 36-hole total of 12-under 130 on the Kingsmill River Course.

"I saw a lot of players play good today, so I think it will make for fun competition the next two days," added Shin, who was delighted to find herself in the title hunt going into the weekend.

"I'm used to the competition, I'm used to the pressure and nerves, too, and also I really like that feeling," she said. "So I can't wait for the play for the weekend."

Shin birdied the par-five third and picked up another shot at the par-5 seventh.

She followed up with birdies at 10 and 12, but she settled for par at the par-five 15th and gave back a shot with a bogey at 16.

"The greens were a little bit slower, so I missed a few chances with my putting," she said. "I still feel good so I just look forward to the weekend."
